U.S. automobile production figures

Automobile experimentation and design in the US started a few years after Carl Benz patented and produced his original gasoline-powered motor car in 1886, and a handful of companies were producing them in the US by the turn of the century. The table below shows the annual unit volumes for the top US producers in each year from 1899 to 2000. The data appear to be stated in "model years", rather than calendar years (for example, 1942 shows production even though the industry was shut down on January 1, 1942 for the duration of the war). There are several cases where a producer disappears from the list for a year; it is not clear whether this is because that producer's volumes dropped dramatically (for example, from an extended labor strike) or the data are simply missing from the original sources. The numbers below represent passenger vehicles made and sold in the US by US-owned companies. Foreign-owned brands with production in the US for US consumption (such as Volkswagen or Honda) are excluded.

While a producer is active, unit volumes are typically considered a trade secret. It is not possible to estimate unit volumes from a company's revenue numbers, and when unit volumes are published they are typically of a celebratory nature (e.g., "millionth unit sold!") and lacking detail. When a marque leaves the market, analysts and enthusiasts are more able to assemble credible unit volumes.

Even the best data contain uncertainties. As the definition of "model-years" varies by brand and vintage, the data are not precisely comparable over time. Almost certainly, "fleet vehicles" are included in the numbers, but trucks are excluded. "Rebadged" imported models (such as the Metropolitan or several GM and Chrysler models after the 1980s) are not consistently reported in these numbers, and the same goes for US models produced in Canadian plants (such as Dodge's factory in Windsor, Ontario, or Studebaker's factory in Hamilton, Ontario.

Temporary marques that were later subsumed into the vendor name (such as Chrysler's Imperial) are combined, and minor vendors (those achieving well below 1% market share) have been excluded. The gaps in the spreadsheet data should be updated from authoritative data (such as the Automobile Catalog) by users.
